Why teams connect Apache Kylin and BigQuery

Keep tables consistent across Apache Kylin and BigQuery, for a migration, a multi-warehouse stack, or a dataset two platforms both need.

Apache Kylin is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into BigQuery, so BigQuery always reflects the current state of Apache Kylin — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

Companies end up with two warehouses for practical reasons: a migration in progress, teams that standardized on different platforms, an acquisition, or tools that only connect to one of them. The result is the same dataset maintained twice, with duplicated pipelines and numbers that almost match.

Common use cases

  • Read pre-aggregated metrics from Kylin and sync them into CRM fields or planning spreadsheets on a schedule.
  • Expose Kylin query results to operational dashboards without granting access to the underlying Hadoop data.
  • Land CRM and ERP records in BigQuery continuously so dashboards reflect business systems without nightly batch jobs
  • Activate modeled BigQuery tables by syncing computed attributes back into sales and marketing tools

Serve tools that only connect to one platform

Mirror the datasets a BI tool, notebook, or application needs onto the platform it can actually reach.

Shared datasets across teams

Where different teams run different warehouses, sync the curated tables both rely on so their metrics agree by construction.

Consolidation after M&A

Bring the acquired company's warehouse data across continuously instead of through one-off dumps.

What you can sync between Apache Kylin and BigQuery

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Apache Kylin objects BigQuery objects
Segments Time-ranged build units that partition pre-computed data. Partitioned tables Synced like regular tables; partition columns map to target fields.
Build Jobs Batch jobs that compute or refresh segments, monitored via the REST API. Clustered tables Supported; clustering is transparent to the sync.
Projects Top-level workspaces that group models, tables, and jobs. Datasets Organizational container — you pick which dataset’s tables to sync.
Models Star-schema definitions over source tables that determine what can be queried. Projects Connection scope: the service account grants access per project.
Cubes / Indexes Pre-computed aggregate structures that answer queries at low latency. Tables The syncable unit: only tables can be synced per the Stacksync docs.

How the Apache Kylin and BigQuery connectors work

Apache Kylin

Integration surface
SQL over JDBC/ODBC plus a REST API for queries and administration
Authentication
Username/password (HTTP basic authentication on the REST API)
Change detection
Not applicable for row-level capture; data freshness follows segment build and refresh jobs, so integrations poll query results
Capabilities
read
Rate limits
No fixed API quotas; query capacity depends on the deployment and pre-computed index coverage

BigQuery

Integration surface
GoogleSQL via the BigQuery REST API, client libraries, JDBC/ODBC drivers, and the Storage Read/Write APIs
Authentication
Google Cloud service account: create a dedicated service account, grant roles (BigQuery Data Editor, BigQuery Job User, Cloud Functions Service Agent, Cloud Run Developer, Eventarc Event Receiver
Change detection
Real-time notification service deployed into your Google Cloud project: Eventarc ("a notification service that enables real-time updates to happen") with a Cloud Run "secure portal for real-time notification service in
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
Subject to Google Cloud quotas on queries, DML, and streaming; DML is supported but the platform favors append-heavy batch and streaming loads over row-at-a-time writes
